Pants
In the musical, Spongebob dons plaid pants, which may be tricky to locate. A possible solution could be to search for pants with a similar pattern, such as red and yellow plaid, or to create your own using a fabric adhesive to attach red and yellow scraps to a pair of black pants.
Tie

Suspenders
If you’re having trouble finding the crimson suspenders that SpongeBob wears in the musical, an alternative option is to use a fabric adhesive to attach red fabric scraps to a set of black suspenders.
